[Bug 948588] Re: aptdcon crashed with IOError in _get_terminal_width(): [Errno 5] Input/output error

[Sebastian Heinlein]

There are some serious issues in your script. I would not recommend to
run aptdcon as a background task and then wait for it? This is a little
bit inconsitent. Why do you redirect the output? If you don't want to
see the terminal output just use the --hide-terminal option.

Title:
  aptdcon crashed with IOError in _get_terminal_width(): [Errno 5]
  Input/output error

Status in “aptdaemon” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  the following maintainer script crashed aptdaemon:

  # enqueue ppa-purges - requires the aptdaemon version of ppa-purge
  ppa-purge -r ppa:elementary-os/daily &
  ppa-purge -r ppa:elementary-os/testing &
  ppa-purge -r ppa:nemequ/sqlheavy &
  ppa-purge -r ppa:midori/midori-dev &
  ppa-purge -r ppa:ricotz/docky &
  ppa-purge -r ppa:marlin-devs/marlin-daily &
  # make sure we clean up even if something goes terribly wrong, e.g.
  # there's no suitable ppa-purge and we're cleaning up after a failed install
  rm -f /etc/apt/sources.list.d/elementary-daily-channel-elementary-os-daily-precise.list
  rm -f /etc/apt/sources.list.d/elementary-daily-channel-elementary-os-testing-precise.list
  rm -f /etc/apt/sources.list.d/elementary-daily-channel-nemequ-sqlheavy-precise.list
  rm -f /etc/apt/sources.list.d/elementary-daily-channel-midori-midori-dev-precise.list
  rm -f /etc/apt/sources.list.d/elementary-daily-channel-ricotz-docky-precise.list
  rm -f /etc/apt/sources.list.d/elementary-daily-channel-marlin-devs-marlin-daily-precise.list
  rm -rf /var/tmp/elementary-daily-release-channel

  the part with rm's is actually very silly, reverted it already. I'm
  using a custom aptdaemon-based version of ppa-purge which can be found
  at lp:~shnatsel/ppa-purge/ppa-purge-aptdaemon
